Solution

The correct option is B Species A (-) ; Species B (0)
Amensalism is a type of population interaction in which one of the interacting species is harmed whereas the other is unaffected. It can hence be represented as Species A (-); Species B (0). For example, certain plants release toxic chemicals that can inhibit the growth of other plant species.
